GO Spring Break... forever

While the first “spring break” took place in 1935 when a Colgate University swimming coach brought his team down to Ft. Lauderdale to train, and they brought their non-swimmer friends, it wasn’t until MTV started broadcasting their annual Spring Break special from Daytona Beach that it really became a thing. A very wet-T-shirted, very Florida-centric, very deliciously tacky thing. We also have spring break to thank for the Girls Gone Wild explosion, circa 1997; a certain production assistant named Joe Francis was inspired to start filming girls flashing cameras in Ft. Lauderdale.

But spring break never dies. It just reincarnates itself, so proceed to go south and be stupid. As James Franco famously says over and over (and over) again in the classic Harmony Korine film Spring Breakers, “Spring break forever.”
